This TV will play for about 15 - 20 minutes than go off leaving 5 blinking green lights. I have to unplug it and plug it back in to get another 15 minutes of play.

Through experimentation I found that if I turn it on and don't put a signal to it it will stay on for extended periods but if I send a signal through it, via cable box, direct or cable card it will go off within a few minutes.

Any Ideas on what I can do. When it's on it looks great!!

-----2004 Panasonic TH-37PB25-----

Thanks

That model # does not pull up on the USA Panasonic site.Are you located outside the US ? Give a little more discription of the set or post a picture and I can try to match the model with one here.

Might cost you $10 max if you can get them locally.If you or a friend can solder you got it licked.All you have to do is take the back off the tv and follow where the wires from the ac cord plug goes and thats the power supply mon get thadule.If you cat far post back and I'll tell you what to look for on the module.
